@Esper
I maybe mistaken but I have this strange memories that somewhere in the beginning it was mentioned that he is 26 years old virgin and they laughed at him like "how can you be virgin at this age". I'm not sure, maybe it was in some other manga and I might be wrong in the end

I swear, they're getting bigger every chapter... you know what I'm talking about

@Esper I'm taking a wild guess that they're only 6 years old apart. Since my parents have an age gap of 9, it's still reasonably okay, but maybe standards differ in various countries.

ALWAYS . COMPLIMENT . THE . SWIMSUIT!!!
Geez, that's Boyfriend 101 material, get your act together, Takamura.

And if any readers were still trying to reach the NNN goal, RIP for you after this chapter.

In the first chapter the guys are job hunting I guess after finishing college? If true, they must be ~22 yo. Senko is supposedly a high school first year, so 15-16. A six years age gap sounds like a good guess and also kinda creepy to be honest.

MUH.

@radegor I Think they might have went to the same type of highschool Senko goes to which means they didn't see many girls, then they maybe went to one of those 1 or 2 year technical degrees, so yeah he might be 20 at youngest and probably 23 at oldest. Certainly a bit creepy by western standards though I've seen it plenty of times. Not sure how its seen in Japan

 

[_kojika_]

In chapter 6 we were told that Senko was 16 and Takamura 23, so a 7 year age gap. Of course, the older one gets the less important that becomes.

Edit: The raw version on Senmanga gives Senko's age as 17.

woah this is heating up eh

 

[IlsaTilsaKilsaMilsa]

@radegor Japanese High Schools is between ages 16-18 on average.

Is her dad okay with this? Well, he did give a grown man a room separated from his high school daughter's by only a paper door. Does he really want grandchildren or something?

 

[krixified]

I had to do recheck quite much to make sure this isn't a bonus chapter

 

[Giga]

While Sugita's shaping up to be a loser of one kind, Takamura's strengthening his already attained loser status. Everything he's said, almost every way he's reacted to Senko--from the start, especially after everything that's happened--can't be explained with simple logic.

On a side note, all these people crying about "age gaps" are absurd. Must be the same people who think you're still not an adult even if you're in your mid-20s, and that's okay to still claim you're "trying to find yourself" in your late 20s, and that old, used, and abused roasties are ideal. Whatever the case, such people have also been spoiled by the long lifespans filled with comfortable living humanity now has the opportunity to enjoy.

It's all even more egregious when you consider the apparent fact that Senko is more mature than Takamura is. The latter's hardly ever stopped behaving like a little boy in a grown man's body.
